Adult Christian Formation

LtQ2 is an open-minded alternative to studies that attempt to give participants all the answers and instead strives to create an environment where participants can interact with one another in exploring what's next for Christianity.

The 20-minute video segments include conversations with leading voices of faith, sermon and lecture clips, digital stories illustrating aspects of an evolving faith, and concrete spiritual practices and disciplines.

LtQ2 features all the contributors from the original Living the Questions: Nancy Ammerman, John Bell, Marcus Borg, Minerva Carcaño, John B. Cobb, Jr., John Dominic Crossan, Lloyd Geering, Culver "Bill" Nelson, Siyoung Park, Stephen Patterson, Tex Sample, John Shelby Spong and Emilie Townes. In addition, LtQ2 also features Rita Nakashima Brock, Walter Brueggemann, Ron Buford, Yvette Flunder, James Forbes, Matthew Fox, Hans Küng, Amy-Jill Levine, Meagan McKenna, Rebecca Ann Parker, Helen Prejean, Barbara Rossing, Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza, Bernard Brandon Scott, Rick Ufford-Chase, Winnie Varghese and Mel White.

LtQ2 is being used in Men's Tuesday Bible Study (Tuesday morning 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. in the Family Life Center) and by "Coffee Pot Theology" on Sunday at 9:30 a.m. in the River Room.

Please be aware that the issues and concepts discussed in this series will challenge many people's worldview and understanding of the Divine. For some it will be radically new information. For others, it will be an affirmation of what they've known deep down for a long time. This curriculum does not presume to provide answers - its intention is to expose people to ideas and concepts that may take a long time to process. Everyone participating should resist the urge to try to provide answers for those troubled by the ambiguity of some of the conclusions.
